Then they'll have to build their own tech though instead of just fining foreign tech and regulating tech to death. Not really their thing. China's helped by being pro-China.

You think China doesn't regulate tech? Regulation drives innovation.

Could you please stop posting unsubstantive comments and flamebait? You've unfortunately been doing it repeatedly. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.
The US frequently buys us up whenever we get something going in tech.
Like DeepMind.
Now, a question: what exactly has been innovative about X specifically after Musk bought it and fired so many of the people working there?
Another question: what can X do that all the free clones can't do?
While I'm at it, what about vice versa? Because if the free clones can do more than X, that would show how un-innovative X has become.
What I've seen from X since the purchase has been copying other people's features. Longer messages, videos, that kind of thing. Even getting into GenAI, though on that at least everyone is plagarising everyone else.
